About works / performance
I run a company in Cape Town, South Africa where I design products using typical South African craft techniques and materials (eg wire working) and explore re-use in the realm of product design. I have a standard range of products and also make special commissioned pieces using the techniques mentioned above.
Comment
I enjoy exploring new ways to use old and traditionally useless/valueless materials. I like to play with materials. I like to limit myself to a specific thing for a long time, and really explore it. I love traditional craft and am interested in crafts from cultures around the world.
